The Government of Azerbaijan takes all measures to remain at power
longer; therefore, Baku will unleash no new war in Karabakh. The war
is dangerous for Azeri authorities rather than Armenians, Nureddin
Memmedli, Deputy Chairman of the Popular Front Party of Azerbaijan,
told Faktxeber.com.
He thinks that one of the scenarios may be “local military operations
in the run-up to the elections. But as I have already said, the war
will be more dangerous for us than for Armenians, because they kill
the people’s patriotism and the army is in a desperate situation. The
army has turned into a death machine for the Motherland’s children”,
he said.
He added that Azerbaijan is unlikely to take steps running counter
to the interests of international forces that are not interested in
military operations in Karabakh.
There are 3 months left before the presidential elections in
Azerbaijan. The democratic forces of Azerbaijan have created a national
council and nominated Rustam Ibragimbekov as a joint candidate.
